Wood floor repair for Liddington homes

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned.
  2. Next we fill the dents and chips.
  3. We sand the repair flush with the board.
  4. We recreate the colour and grain by hand.
  5. Finally we match the sheen of the floor.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Wood floor repair in Liddington without replacing anything

Water-swollen laminate needs replacing, and we will tell you if that’s the case. Boards are repaired where they lie, with the colour and grain matched by hand. Common call-outs are for chipped board edges and dents from dropped items, on laminate flooring, solid wood and wood-effect vinyl (ask us).

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Use felt pads under furniture and wipe spills straight away.

What we cannot put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Laminate swollen along the joints by water
  • Boards that have lifted or warped
  • Underfloor damage

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Wood-effect vinyl (ask us)
  • Engineered wood
  • Laminate flooring
  • Solid wood

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Liddington as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace in Liddington?

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Liddington. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

FAQs for Liddington

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole floor and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

What does wood floor repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Does the room need clearing?

Just around the damaged area.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How we price wood floor repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole floor
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most customers in Liddington get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What we’re called out for in Liddington

Chair legs, pets and dropped items scratch and dent wood and laminate, and sliding appliances can gouge the boards.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Burns
  • Chipped board edges
  • Gouges from moving appliances
  • Scratches from furniture and pets

What to look for in a quote

  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
